"Setup was a breeze"
Pros: Setup was very simple and fast
Cons: Instructions could be more thorough and setup security bug exists
Summary: Having read reviews *after* already purchasing this product, I was somewhat concerned. My printer (Lexmark E238) is not on the supported printers list, but the E232 which looks exactly the same is.
The first step is to connect it to your modem/router, however they never tell you that. There is a picture in the "Overview" section, but it's not clear that's the first thing to do which I found odd. Either way, the rest of the process was fairly straight forward.
I have a Netgear WGT624 v3 router and other users should note that the print server *changed the password on the router* to the default password and set the channel to 11. That certainly is not very user friendly or good security practice by any means, however if you know this ahead of time, it's not that big a deal to fix.
Besides the password/channel change, I simply can't complain about the product. Works great and is simple enough. I hope others have similar experiences.
